OK, the US had Ronald Regan, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jesse Ventura . . . to name a few, it's our turn up north now! there is a campaign to name William Shatner to the position of Governor General of Canadahttp://www.facebook.com/pages/Help-nominate-William-Shatner-for-Governor-General-of-Canada/102216946483989?v=wall! It's a little frightening though, the GG has veto power over any proposed Federal legislation (almost never exercised)! Here's hoping that if the bid is successful, his evil alter-ego doesn't take over! Although I'm not sure he could possibly be any worse at making important decisions than our Prime Minister Stephen Harper (Captain Dunsell). :laugh:

We already have enough oddball politicians. We don't need to add this clown.

It'll be interesting to see if it's Captain Kirk or Denny Crane that comes shining through should Shatner get that position.
The pen is truly mightier than the sword.  And considerably easier to write with.
